G35 = I Hate HoNdA?!?!
Terrible, looks like retarded flared nostrils paired with the worst body lines in the last 60 years.
Friend of mine described it nicely
"it's like an over compensating RX7 that did too much juice and is all ****ed up"

Well the thing is that the cost of G35 ownership isn't going down, but the cost of the initial buy-in is. if something breaks, it still mostly costs the same as it ever did. Same thing is happening in the NSX world. Easier to buy-in, but parts are still expensive, which means they either have to get rid of the car or have their parents forward the cash.

That's what I meant to say. Initial buy in is now much cheaper.
Since cost of maintainence is the same, expect the quality of vehicles to decline as maintainece gets put off. How many guys here have been driving with the cel light on for a few months...or maybe the airbag light or vdc/abs lights for a while? How about other general maintainence?
As cars get cheaper, they also tend to get more ratty.
Now, when i drive the Corvette, any other Corvette on the road will wave back at you. It's almost certain. There is a following with those cars, and the people that buy them, know what they bought. It's like riding a motorcycle and how any time you pass another bike they give you the two fingers wave peace sign thing.
Jeeps guys love to wave too, as well as mustang owners (except 16 year olds in v6s).
The last time I waved to a younger guy in a g35 coupe he stared me down like I f'ed his mom

I'm so glad mine was single-owner with a full service record.
Reminds me of that mid 90's commercial where the black ws6 pulls up behind the red Ferrari and eats it. Always loved the looks of that hood.
I'd drive an LSx car if I had a mullet
Whoever gets my car down the road will get a well maintained car. I have a spreadsheet listing maintainenece as well as every single receipt for anything I have bought. If anything...I tend to over maintain. As a result, I tend to get higher average price for my cars when I sell.

I thought of the same thing, Janik probably did too (if he's old enough to remember those commercials
)Gotta tell you, it was hard owning Trans-Ams for years and never having a mullet

G35 sedan w/ too much money in mods

I have to agree as well. The only thing I didn't like about those cars was that they drove like azz. Nose is way too long and the front feels narrow and squirrely behind the wheel.
I don't think i have ever ridden in one. I just like the way they sound, look and the fact that they go like the dickins! (yes theres some hill billy talk for this hill billy car lol)
